Answer:

80 units

Step-by-step explanation:

v = 1/3 bh

v₁ = 1/3 * b * h₁ = 344

v₂ = 1/3 * b * h₂ = 301

v₁ / v₂ = h₁ / h₂ = 344 / 301

h₂ = h₁ - 10

h₁ / (h₁ - 10) = 344 / 301

344 * (h₁ - 10) = 301 * h₁

344* h₁ - 3440 = 301 * h₁

43 * h₁ = 3440

h₁ = 80

Answer:

$778.46 is the bi-weekly net pay

Step-by-step explanation:

Net pay  is the gross pay minus taxes

Net pay = gross pay - gross pay * tax rate

Simplifying this equation by factoring out gross pay

Net pay = gross pay (1- tax rate)


Substituting this in

Net pay = gross pay (1- tax rate)

We know the

hours worked = 23000

tax rate = .12

Net pay = 23000 (1- .12)

Net pay = 23000 (.88)

Net pay = 20240

But this is per year, and we want it bi weekly

There are 52 weeks in a year, divide by 2 (bi weekly)= 26

So divide 20240 by 26, so you get paid every 2 weeks.

$20240/26 = 778.46  (we round to the nearest cent)
